Pilates Reformer Foot and Ankle Strength
And Mobility
with Wendi Carroll
Our feet and ankles have a thankless task. We walk and stand
on them all day, but how much attention do we pay to their
wellbeing? In this video Wendi uses the reformer footwork series
to showcase how important the lower limbs are for overall healthy
movement. Often this is the first sequence you’ll do in a class, so
it’s the perfect time to focus on Pilates principles of breathing,
concentration and core control. It’s time to spoil your feet…enjoy!
Trap Dance
with Nathan Short
Put away your steel-capped shoes, there’s an ‘r’ in there. Trap
is a cutting edge electronic dance music style that although
not currently well known soon will be. You know a track is trap
when it features a quirky ‘drop’ with a lot of hollow space left
where vocals and synths would normally be. Choreographing
dance to trap music requires a more grounded approach with
a focus on isolation and strength, with a few hip rolls thrown in
for good measure!
